I do think this is probably another case of really shoddy reporting though.
The reporting isn't great, but the English are not blameless. There are plenty looking for a fight.

It's certainly nowhere near twenty years without trouble. It kicked off in Germany in 2006 at the World Cup. There's been instances with clubs too, like the Chelsea racism incident on the Metro.

There's a subculture of hooliganism than persists, unfortunately.
